1147276 - e10s breaks Google Calendar event's "Add Guest" name autocompletion and saving event

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: General, defect)

Description

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

STR:
1. Try to create a new event on Google Calendar.
2. In the new event page, enter someone's LDAP username in the "Add: Guests".

RESULT:
Nothing happens when e10s is enabled, but the text field autocompletes LDAP email addresses with e10s is disabled. I can still reproduce the problem in a non-e10s window when e10s is enabled.

If I try to save the new event, Google Calendar will report "saving failed".

This bug sounds similar to bug 1112604.


I see the following errors in the browser console, but I don't know if they are related:

NS_ERROR_XPC_CANT_PASS_CPOW_TO_NATIVE: It's illegal to pass a CPOW to native code arg 1 [nsIMessageListenerManager.addMessageListener] RemoteAddonsChild.jsm:395:0

[Jim Mathies [:jimm]]

Any addons installed when you got this?

Comment 2

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

I disabled all my add-ons and I can still repro this bug in an e10s window (and not in a non-e10s window). I can't reproduce it in a clean profile. Here is my about:support info:

[Tracy Walker [:tracy]]

Chris, it's most likely due to one of your add-ons since you can't reproduce in fresh profile.  Thing to do now is disable them one by one to determine which one is incompatible with G-cal in e10s.

I can still reproduce the bug with all my add-ons disabled. I reverted some of my prefs that had non-default values (in about:support), but I could not find a pref that had any effect.

A clue! I see suspicious "HTTP 401 Unauthorized" XHR errors when entering text into the guest name field, but only in an e10s window. You may need to enable XHR logging in the Dev Tools console's "Network" log filter.

POST 
XHR 
https://content.googleapis.com/plusi/v2/ozInternal/contactstorequery [HTTP/2.0 401 Unauthorized 56ms]

Using Charles Proxy, I was able to view the HTTPS response:

Comment 5

[Brad Lassey [:blassey] (use needinfo?)]

Chris, the majority opinion in triage is that this is HTTPSEverywhere not disabling well. Could you try reproducing in with a clean profile?

Comment 6

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

I can't reproduce this problem in a clean profile when HTTPS Everywhere is enabled, disabled, or removed.

I can still reproduce the problem in my dirty profile when HTTPS Everywhere is enabled, disabled, or removed. I will need to debug more.

Comment 7

[Tracy Walker [:tracy]]

Kicking back to triage to ask what the last needInfo of Chris was for.

Comment 8

[Brad Lassey [:blassey] (use needinfo?)]

NI to jim to investigate

Comment 9

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

I tried to narrow down my add-ons, but I was not able isolate the problem.

Comment 10

[Jim Mathies [:jimm]]

I tried:

1) disabling all addons manually - still reproduces
2) disabling tracking protection - still reproduces
3) safe mode - does not reproduce

Comment 13

[Bryan Quigley]

I've only hit this issue in the last week or so.  For me the only workaround is to use a Non-E10s window, which didn't work for Chris in the original description.

To fix this machine I've tried deleting all cookies, disabling all addons, clear cache which none of them worked.

Doing a full Refresh from the support page did however resolve it.  (I reverted to the backup because I don't actually want to do that right now)

Comment 14

[Bryan Quigley]

Preferences -> Privacy -> Use Custom Settings for History -> Accept third party cookies | Set to Never.   Now it works.

Set it to Always and it no longer works.

Thanks! Moving back into e10s triage.

Comment 16

[Blake Kaplan (:mrbkap) (inactive)]

This might be a dupe of bug 1171215 but I haven't check to make sure that gcal is using web sockets yet.

Comment 17

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

Google Calendar name autocompletion seems to work correctly in today's Nightly 42 build 2015-07-23. I was never able to isolate the problem in my profile configuration or add-ons, so don't know if this bug has been fixed or if my profile has changed.

Comment 18

[Bryan Quigley]

I can still reproduce this easily by toggling Accept Third Party cookies from Never to Always.

Comment 19

[Bryan Quigley]

I can still reproduce this easily by toggling Accept Third Party cookies from Never to Always on build from 2015-07-24.

Comment 20

[Blake Kaplan (:mrbkap) (inactive)]

I tried to reproduce this the other day and wasn't able to. Bryan, what do your STR look like? I tried:

* Start with default settings (i.e. allow 3rd party cookies).
* Log in to Google.
* Disable 3rd party cookies.
* Create new calendar event.
=> Autocomplete worked properly.

I also tried with 3rd party cookies disabled before I logged without any difference.

Comment 21

[Bryan Quigley]

1. Have Google Calendar open with Accept Third Part Cookies - Never
2. I can make events and in events I can use Add Guest auto-completion.
3. Change Accept Third Part Cookies  to Always
4. I can no longer make events but Add Guest auto-completion works on existing events.  It also now works on New events (but I still can't finish the save).
5. Change Accept Third Party Cookies to "From Visited".
6. It works fine now.  (From Visited used to not work IIRC)

So the behavior does appear to have changed since the 24th.

Comment 22

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

I can still reproduce this bug in Nightly 43, even though I have "Accept Third Party Cookies" = Always.

Comment 23

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

Add Guest auto-completion is working for me just now. I restarted Nightly 44 and it stopped working again. For every keystroke in the guest field, the console reported an HTTP error:

POST XHR https://clients6.google.com/plusi/v2/ozInternal/contactstorequery [HTTP/2.0 401 Unauthorized 76ms]
POST XHR https://clients6.google.com/plusi/v2/ozInternal/contactstorequery [HTTP/2.0 401 Unauthorized 76ms]
POST XHR https://clients6.google.com/plusi/v2/ozInternal/contactstorequery [HTTP/2.0 401 Unauthorized 84ms]

I had add-ons installed but none enabled. When I restarted Nightly again, the problem went away. Add Guest auto-completion continues to work whether I allow or disallow third-party cookies.
